I might just have to get one of these

Happy Days:
Just been scrolling through the internet, (as you do on a non-flying day) looking for nothing in particular.

Eyed Ebay and found this being sold from some of our German friends;




“Horizon ParkZone Radian Pro PNP”

Selling at €156 +€16 for shipping. I thought the spec wasn’t bad considering it has a full power train included and full a house wing. …………

Specifications:
Wingspan 2000mm (78.5 in)
Length 1140mm (45.0 in)
Weight 980 g (34.6 oz)
Speed control E-Flite PRO 30A ESC (installed)
Motor 480 BL 960 KV Outrunner (installed)
Servo PKZ SV 80 sport servos (6 installed)
Receiver AR600 DSM2 (installed in BNF ONLY - This listing is a PNP version)

The PNP version offers a saving saving over the BNF version can be made for those with existing batteries and chargers as the plug-N-play versions comes as plane only. Everything is installed and connected ready to go in the plane, all that’s needed is to fit and connect up a receiver of choice.

PNP Features
Ready to fly in minutes
5-channel control – throttle, aileron, elevator, rudder and flaps
Powerful 480-size 960Kv brushless outrunner motor installed
E-flite™ Pro 30A brushless ESC installed
Durable, lightweight and repairable Z-Foam™ construction
Requires a 5-channel full range transmitter, receiver, battery and charger (sold separately)

So I thought I’d enquirer a little further just to see if I could better the price. Came up with Steve Webb selling them for £105 + £17 shipping.

I might have to get myself one :wink: , just for a laugh on those windless Glide-Ins. :roll:

"Mandy,....are we maxed out on the credit card yet?" :lol:

that is a nice looking machine my friend. There's only 59 days, 5 hours and 47 minutes to the big day...... so go for it and enjoy......


I'm actually looking at something a little smaller myself right now to fly close to home i.e. something I don't have to break down and can be flying straight out of the car by just switching it on and giving it a chuck....

Joe had a smashing little Messerschmitt ME-109 on the slopes there a while back..... I must drop him a line on that one  :D

Happy Days:
Or, how about this then with banded wings. Fits in your car fully assembled, take it out and chuck it in the air......Bobs' your uncle!

Money well spent keith  :D

stephen.shannon:
Hi Keith,

I went with your advice, kinda,  :D

There is a Breeze Glider kit on its way to me today from hobbyking, but I went with the big brother, 1.4m WS, rather than the mini 900mm WS..... might be a bit more forgiving for a novice :lol: and with the banded on wings it'll be great for quick assembly.....

Anyway, its PNF so will hopefully be running a few mins after it comes out of the box and will suit the IDA centre across the road from me for impromptu opportunities that present themselves....
